These days BATL, The Backyard Axe Throwing League is known for being the go-to destination across North America for private gatherings of all types (bachelor/bachelorette parties, adult birthdays, corporate team building, and much more), but it’s our weekly leagues that made us famous. As 2017 begins to wind down, all 11 BATL venues are now taking sign-ups for our new league seasons starting January 2018. With no experience necessary you’ll compete individually among up to 30 players while receiving tips from our friendly coaches – and with plenty of time to hang out and get to know each another between throwing.

Once registered, you’ll throw on the same night every week for 8 weeks, consisting of 7 weeks of regulation during which you’ll throw 4 matches (60 axes) on the night of your choosing. The 8th week is playoffs, with the top 16 competitors facing off to crown a winner for the season.

In addition to regional tournaments throughout the year, our annual calendar culminates in the National Axe Throwing Championship, with qualifying players competing against the best globally for a chance to win the Wilson Cup and over $10,000 in prize money.
